Hello Doctor,
2 months ago, my test results were:
Serum Homocysteine: 63.6 µmol/L
LDL Cholesterol: 148 mg/dL
As advised by a doctor, I took Folic Acid tablets for 2 months.
Recent test results:
Serum Homocysteine: 25.33 µmol/L
LDL Cholesterol: 153 mg/dL
Vitamin B12: 283 pg/mL
Vitamin D (25-OH): 46.4 nmol/L
Could you please review these results and advise:
What treatment or supplements should I take now?
Do I need any further tests or follow-up?

Hi, your homocysteine has improved well with folic acid.
Vitamin D is still low and B12 borderline, which can affect energy and lipids.
Continue a balanced diet, add vitamin D supplement, and consider B complex.
Repeat tests in 8 weeks.
Feel free to consult for further guidance.
